Chances taken

I suppose the terminally depressed could argue that we shot straight at him all the time. We didn't: we peppered him from all angles which in itself showed that our approach play was good. We counted something like 12 half decent saves in total before we gave up counting : the majority in the first half. Quite ironic that it took the unexpected i.e.-his own player-to finally beat him.

Our keeper did what was necessary. He had no chance with their late consolation which fell beautifully for the scorer.

We were totally dominant first half: less so the second. Our style of play tires opponents out so I thought they might collapse second half but they kept blocking well and 1-3 was a good result for them.

I'm sure the stattoes will corroborate this, but neutrals sitting in front of us (yes we were in the stand),seemed very impressed with Boro' and our style of play. They had heard a lot about us and enjoyed the game..
